Public-Private Partnership Models & Access to Universal Health Coverage in India.

Abstract

Universal health coverage is extremely vital to catapult a nation’s overall development. However, many financial constraints and limited capacity of the existing health resources has led governments to think about engaging with the private sector entities. This research study aims to present various options and opportunities for PPP in health and aims to understand the preferred models of partnerships available under the Ayushman Bharat scheme (health-insurance program) with an objective of guiding future strategies for healthcare. It encapsulates many interviews of medical practitioners and scholars who are also stakeholders for health policy. The project is reviewed in the later stages on the basis of business model, reach, technology, status for policy analysis.
